We're actually having winter this year. It's the most snow I've seen yet and look what's coming.

challenge accepted!

next week looks nice, though.http://www.centextalk.com/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=6561&stc=1

The reality is ever so much fun.

all after school stuff is cancelled, and only 126 our of 650 elected to stay home. The ice fog is dense and nasty. It's an interesting phenomenon. The ground is white, the sky is white and the air is white. Makes driving with froEn power steering and square tires a trip! (The tires round back out after a mile or so...). Brakes freeze up too.

We had that ice fog in Kosovo in Jan 2014. You really can't drive in it. Granted our temps were 51 below civilization but it was a strange occurrance none the less. We had winter here in Texas a couple of weeks ago. Only lasted a few days. Maybe we get a cold zap in February and they will close post. God Bless Texas and stay warm up there.

As I told my daughter when they were there, it's only 100 degrees warmer here.:))

closer to 120.

All we did was cancel the afterschool activities.
They didn't shorten our duty day or any amount of school.

I actually went at lunch and started my car. And let it run 20 minutes. My next door colleague started his car and let it run for the rest of the day.

The air is super stinky right now.
